GEORGE TOWN, May 10 — Deputy Inspector General of Police Tan Sri Ayob Khan Mydin Pitchay has reiterated that claims linking the father of a suspect in the Ketereh college student murder case to the police are false.
According to Harian Metro, Ayob Khan said the allegation had already been clarified by several parties.
“I want to make it clear that no suspect has any connection with the police or their families. The claim is not true,” he told the daily here today.
He said explanations had already been issued by the Kelantan police chief, the Kota Bharu district police chief and Bukit Aman.
Ayob Khan stressed that the investigation is being conducted strictly in line with procedure and is not influenced by anyone’s background or status.
He also urged the public and media to verify facts before sharing or commenting on sensitive cases, warning that misinformation could spark unnecessary tension.
It was reported earlier that the body of 19 year old college student Nurfisya Zulkifly was found on May 1 by the roadside near a paddy field in Kampung Simah, Ketereh, with 61 stab wounds.
Four individuals were initially detained to assist investigations, including the parents of one suspect. However, the elderly couple has since been released on police bail.
